this dance is what it’s all about: letting loose and having fun. finding that connection, maintaining it, and making something beautiful out of it. ✨
in the novice category, you focus on perfecting your basics while learning about who you are as a dancer and the voice you’ll have during a dance. i’m incredibly thankful to have pulled brandon (
@b_canswing ) for novice jack and jill. he advocates for the follow to have a voice in the dance, which opens up a whole world of possibilities to take the dance to the next level. i made plenty of mistakes in this dance, but as i continue learning about myself and my voice as a dancer, it’s leads like him that make the difference. thank you for the amazing dances, brandon! i hope to dance with you again soon. 💃🕺
i also want to thank my mentors who have continuously pushed me to be better. they have taught me how important the little, meticulous details are in a dance and how one simple change can make a huge difference on what you can bring to a partnership as a follow. they help me connect to my body and have encouraged me to continue finding my own voice in a dance. thank you
@dancewithgabeandmissy @dancewithcaleb and
@dancewithdanya for everything you do as mentors and everything you put into this community! i have the highest respect for all of you and how hard y’all work to push this community to be better. 💌
i’d say the
@dogwood_dance country cool down was an extreme success and i can’t wait to be part of vol. 2!
